I try the site http://dev.live.com/livedata/sdk/ I click on "Request Consent", I type my login and password, and then I get an error page : "Un problème est survenu lors du partage de vos informations avec dev.live.com. Réessayez ultérieurement.".

 

Is the contact API OK ?

Microsoft has created a new forums platform (MSDN | TechNet | Expression | Microsoft) with increased performance, stability, and an improved user experience. During the week of October 6, 2008 this forum will be moving to the new platform. To make sure this is a smooth transition, we want everyone using this forum to have a chance to try out the new forums in advance, and give feedback. We’ve created a Sandbox forum, where you can create threads and try out functionality, and a suggestions forum where you can give us your feedback. Please take some time to go to the new forums today and let us know what you think.

 

 On the day the forum moves to the new platform, a post will be made letting you know the process has been started, and the forum will be locked to new posts. Once the process is complete, a final post to the forum will be made letting you know the forum has moved.

1.            All posts in the forum will be preserved

2.            Any points you’ve received for replies will move with you (on a per forum basis)

3.            Any bookmarks to this forum or threads within this forum will redirect to their new location

4.            Your “My Threads” will be preserved on the new platform

 

The only thing you’ll need to do after migration is set Windows Live Alerts for any threads you were tracking.

 

If you have feedback, let us know in the suggestions forum

 

Thanks!

Hi.

 

I'm trying to figure out how the Contacts Control in IE is able to open an active conversation with a prefilled text. I have tried to look trough the JavaScript for a reference to "MSNMessenger.P4QuickLaunch" object. Witch I suspect was used. But I cannot find any reference to it. That is actually great... Because that would not work with Firefox, or other browser that does not support activeX.

 

And this does not either work in Firefox.

<a href="msnim:chat?contact=EMAL">conversationa>

 

Is there a library function that I can use, or is there another way?

 

Thanx

Lars

Hi,

 

I am encoding and exporting to Live videos from Expression Encoder. All works great, no real problems with anything except the following which is simply appearance related.

 

When I encode and output a video from Encoder, I choose a template such as, CLEAN, and encode and output the file.

 

It plays in my test project fine with the correct template.

 

However, when I play the video through my application from Live, it defaults to only the "SilverLight" Template each time.

 

Is this a requirement or known issue?

 

Is there some way like in the properyties of the SilverlightStreamingMediaPlayer control that I can change this in my application?

 

I can find no reference material on the properties of the SilverlightStreamingMediaPlayer.

 

Thanks for any links or help

No photo show me this handler  :

 

<%@ WebHandler Language="C#" Class="LoadImageHandler" %>

using System;

using System.IO;

using System.Net;

using System.Web;

public class LoadImageHandler : IHttpHandler

{

private string path = null;

private string dat = null;

private string lid = null;

public void ProcessRequest (HttpContext context)

{

foreach (string key in context.Request.QueryString)

{

if ("url" == key)

{

path = context.Request.QueryString[key];

}

else

{

if ("lid" == key)

{

lid = HttpUtility.UrlDecode(context.Request.QueryString[key]);

}

else

{

if ("dt" == key)

{

dat = context.Request.QueryString[key];

//dat = HttpUtility.UrlDecode(context.Request.QueryString[key]);

}

else

{

context.Response.StatusCode = (int)HttpStatusCode.BadRequest;

return;

}

}

}

}

if ((path == null) || (dat == null))

{

context.Response.StatusCode = (int) HttpStatusCode.BadRequest;

return;

}

// Get Photo

HttpWebRequest serviceRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(path);

serviceRequest.UserAgent = "Microsoft Windows Live Photo Demo";

serviceRequest.Method = "GET";

serviceRequest.Headers.Add("Authentication", "DelegationToken dt=\"" + dat + "\"");

try

{

HttpWebResponse serviceResponse = (HttpWebResponse)serviceRequest.GetResponse();

context.Response.ContentType = serviceResponse.ContentType;

Stream s = serviceResponse.GetResponseStream();

int b = s.ReadByte();

while (b != -1)

{

context.Response.OutputStream.WriteByte((byte)b);

b = s.ReadByte();

}

}

catch (WebException ex)

{ //The HTTP request failed, display what happened.

context.Response.StatusCode = (int) HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError;

}

catch (Exception ex)

{ //The parsing failed, display what happened.

context.Response.StatusCode = (int) HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError;

}

}

public bool IsReusable {

get {

return true;

}

}

}

 

Why??

I call that to show me the photo in a Image:

Image1.ImageUrl = "./LoadImageHandler.ashx?url=" + url + "&lid=" + lid + "&dt=" + dt;

 

url, lid and dt are right at 100% but I have a blank image with the "x" red :/

 

Help me please!!! ^^

MSDN Forums: Live Controls - I am trying to register a application for use with Contacts API and I get
The application domain cannot be added to the application because it already exists

I am pretty sure that there are no other app-ids within our company (the actual domain owner) registered with windows live.

Who should I get in touch with? One older post with similar issue suggests contacting Jorgen Thelin (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=3563970&SiteID=1)- but I am not sure if he is the right person/moderator.

I'm using the contacts API to get emails to send invitations. I get the delegation token, construct the invite contact request and I get a positive response. The problem is that I'm not being able to read the response. I get a lot of strange characters. To read the response I'm using UTF-8 format as in the examples.

 

Has anybody  gone through this issue before? What can I do?

 

Thanks for the help!
